Tag: Golden Kamuy 2

I was thinking about what to write during my update post, but amidst my backlog worries, I forgot the wrap-up post! (Well, that's what happens when you go on a road trip on New Year's Day and start said update post at 12 am on the 2nd...) Just listing out the shows makes me realise... Continue Reading →

Geno Studio has been in charge of Golden Kamuy this past season, so I figured they’d be worth looking into. After the “death” of Manglobe, Geno Studio sure has a lot to live up to…and live up they did. Even if Kokkoku and Golden Kamuy have been panned for certain parts of their visuals, their work...

The "mysterious, incomprehensible woman" character type in anime is normally relegated to...well, a woman. So, I was thinking - is this type really as restrictive as we think it is? Can I trace it back to something? The return of Golden Kamuy (henceforth GK) brings the return of Inkarmat, the woman who uses her fox jaw... Continue Reading →

I wonder if I even needed to hit refresh on my enthusiasm levels... Due to Han Gyaku Sei Million Arthur being a no-show and the show being pulled out of my seasonal lineup being Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken (due to the adventure genre's typical slow pace for worldbuilding's sake, it won't really matter if I...

I never said once a show's on hold it's gone forever, right? Just to get details out of the way quickly: part 1 (RErideD and Double Decker), part 2 (Zombieland Saga, Run with the Wind, Bakumatsu, Jingai-san no Yome and the slime anime) and part 3 (Gridman, Radiant, DakaIchi and Goblin Slayer) are done.Expect Han Gyaku Sei...

As we move into the final stretch of the year, it's time to run some shows down...but for some reason, I seem kind of disappointed at this lot. 2018 was best in the spring, methinks...to the point where even though the situation isn't as dire as when I used to throw all hopes at 2...
